The Timeless Farewell: Offering Comfort Through Tradition
This option provides a complete, traditional funeral ceremony, honouring your loved one with a shared time of public or private remembrance before the cremation takes place. It is the ideal choice for families who seek the profound comfort and structure of a familiar, comprehensive experience.
-
The Service: The formal ceremony—whether guided by religious tradition or a bespoke non-religious tribute—is held in its entirety. Your chosen church, one of our welcoming funeral homes, or a meaningful venue becomes the dedicated setting, with your loved one present in a dignified casket.
-
Final Goodbye: A crucial element often included is the Viewing or Wake, offering a dedicated moment for a final, quiet visitation and personal farewell before the committal.
-
The Cremation: Following the service and the final committal, we take over with the utmost respect and care, ensuring the dignified transport and handling of your loved one for the cremation process.
This choice provides the emotional closure and shared communal support of a full traditional funeral, seamlessly followed by the simplicity and flexibility of cremation.
The Celebration of Life: Flexibility and Personal Time to Remember
This is our most adaptable and gentle option, designed to completely separate the event of cremation from the time of remembrance. By prioritising flexibility, this structure ensures your memorial is held exactly when and how your family needs it, without the pressure of immediate deadlines.
-
The Cremation First: The cremation is carried out promptly, often within days of the necessary paperwork being finalised. This step allows the practical arrangements to conclude efficiently, granting immediate peace of mind.
-
The Personalised Memorial: The commemorative service—whether a formal ceremony or an informal gathering—is held later, often weeks or months after the death. This crucial delay offers ample time for distant family to travel, for healing to begin, and for the event to be thoughtfully coordinated and planned.
-
The Ashes: Your loved one's presence remains personal to your family. The service can be profoundly meaningful with the ashes present in a beautiful urn, acting as a centrepiece, or held entirely without them—the choice is always yours.
This service is ideal for families who value maximum freedom in planning, those who require time for global coordination, or anyone who wishes to focus the event entirely on a joyous celebration of a life lived, rather than the immediate context of loss.
The Simple Farewell: Absolute Respect, Uncomplicated Choice
Our Direct Cremation option delivers the maximum simplicity and affordability while maintaining our unwavering commitment to absolute dignity and respectful care. This is the clear, modern choice for families seeking a service free from the pressures and expenses of a traditional event.
-
The Service: The cremation is conducted privately and with the utmost respect at the crematorium. There is no formal service, no attendees, and no clergy present—allowing for a solemn, quiet farewell handled entirely by our professional team.
-
Our Unwavering Care: We take care of every essential detail on your behalf. This includes all necessary legal paperwork, respectful transport, and seamless liaison with the crematorium. Our service is a promise of total peace of mind and no unexpected complications.
-
Final Arrangements: Following the cremation, the ashes are carefully secured in a simple, appropriate container and returned directly to your family. This grants you complete freedom to arrange a private scattering, interment, or keeping—on your own time and entirely on your own terms.
This choice is ideal for families who prioritise cost-effectiveness, value uncomplicated simplicity, or wish to hold a very intimate, personal commemoration without the structure of a formal service.
